You'd do it in a heart beat if you were able.




As in I think it's a retarded atmosphere.

That gaming is not for serious business.

You can always justify 5-hour a day gaming habits in attempt to get in the ever-so successful business of game design. Because you know, playing games hours on hand will give you insight on how to create and be useful in the various specific areas of designing games.

If anyone thought of "job security" I'm pretty sure they would think twice when it comes to "professional gaming" or whatever the hell they call it now. I'm not sure how it really goes but I don't think the "professional gaming industry" would like a 40-year scrawny man gulping down energy drinks and acting all 1337 as an ideal serious gamer. Not sure how years of playing games for cash looks good on any resume.

Professional gaming is kind of like professional reading to me


Who really wants to be a news anchor anyways?

I always thought news anchors get alot of "action," if you know what I mean. Hiding a scandal while in the vast public view every day sounds like a daring yet unique turn-on.

I got my medical school acceptance at 17 after a steady diet of starcraft and half life (mainly sven coop). It's not engineering hard, but it's not a shabby feat either.

I dunno, maybe I woulda gotten in earlier if I actually studied instead of goofed off. What I do know is that I'm far better at laparoscopic procedures as opposed to my peers.
